ISEA2006 Symposium Call for Participation for Papers and
Presentations
DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 30TH, 2006
Important Notice: We listen. There has been considerable feedback that
the original Symposium call did not clearly include a call for Panel
proposals. We have revised the call so that proposals for practice-based
panels are encouraged. The deadline for submission of proposals for
ISEA2006 papers, artist presentations and posters has been extended to
January 30th to accommodate this change. Please note updates to the
Symposium Call description.
http://isea2006.sjsu.edu/symposiumcall/
ISEA2006 seeks paper and presentation proposals responding to the
Symposium themes of Transvergence, Interactive City, Community Domain or
Pacific Rim. This is the only call for papers and presentations that there
will be for ISEA2006.
What tactics, issues and conceptual practices expose or inform the
distinctions of these subject terrains relating to contemporary art
practice? What theoretical analyses illuminate art practice engaged with
new technical and conceptual forms, functions and disciplines; provide
for innovative strategies involving urbanity, mobility, community and
locality; examine the role of corporations, civic cultural organizations
and their relationship to strategic planning; serve to expose new portals
of production and experience; and provide for provocative analysis of
contemporary political and economic conditions?
The ISEA2006 Symposium is discussion and conversation based. This
orientation is intended as a break from the tradition of reading academic
papers and the formalities of panels and is the result of a month-long
online discussion with 21 international participants (see list below). All
sessions are moderated, include respondents and are designed to encourage
audience participation. Session formats will emphasize questioning, debate
and provocation. Papers, abstracts and poster texts will be pre-published
on the web and in print. There will be a pre-symposium online public forum
designed to encourage interaction between symposium presenters and the
public to provide for discussion and debate.
We are seeking proposals for papers, artist and poster sessions.
